Brave Lion [Slim Case]

Summary:

When Japan invades China during World War II, two disgraced Japanese soldiers are offered a chance to redeem themselves. They are sent to supervise a Chinese forced labor camp. But the overzealous men push the Chinese prisoners so hard the laborers rise up in revolt! Surprising twists and turns will keep you breathless as sympathies and loyalties reverse . . . with crucial consequences!

John Woo's thought-provoking story reflects the animosity many Chinese still feel over the invasion by Japan more than half a century ago, giving this sparkler a depth and power not normally associated with martial arts films. Superb editing and direction, as well as beautiful photography and high-action sequences, make "The Brave Lion" a winner! John Woo fans will cheer!
